I am not sure why the Minnesota player was kicked out of the game.
Penn State’s kicker Joey Julius is an very active participant in making tackles on the kickoff and punt team, so blocking him should be fair game.
He’s 260lb so it isn’t like you are going after a lightweight.
Minnesota went after him several times in the game (they lost by the way) to make him think a bit before he decided to throw his husky body into the mix.
Flip the pages for more battles between the Gophers and Julius…
